# Plugchoice

Source: https://docs.evcc.io/en/chargers/plugchoice

Chargers connected through Plugchoice can leverage its OCPP proxy functionality to establish a connection to other backoffices while maintaining full control through evcc. This allows seamless management of Plugchoice-registered chargers directly from evcc.

For improved meter readings, it is recommended to configure the following settings in the Plugchoice portal under the configuration tab:

- Set `MeterValueSampleInterval` to 10 seconds (or another interval according to your preference).
- Set `MeterValuesSampledData` to `Energy.Active.Import.Register,Current.Offered,Current.Import,Voltage`.

These adjustments enable more frequent and detailed reporting of charging data to evcc.

Supported features: meter, dim

Sponsor token required: this device is available to sponsors of the project, see https://docs.evcc.io/en/sponsorship.
